    Re: sample offset

    whoa....Right now I feel like a n00b. Usually, I help a lot in the Support Section of the dBpowerAMP forums, but this is not something I can help with, so I'll just say this: What is an offset on a CD Drive?

      We'll let Spoon answer this via a post in the AccurateRip forum: http://www.audiosense.org/forum/show...ghlight=offset
      To summerize: CDs have 44100 samples per second. Your offset is the amount the CD has to read into the data of the CD to get to the "start" of the audio. On some CD drives, this may mean losing some data, but even 800 samples isn't too much as compared to 44,100 each second.
